It’s clear that workplaces are concerned about cleanliness and sanitation, especially as they continue to search for the best ways to protect employees and customers against communicable illnesses such as COVID-19. Routine cleaning is important to maintain employee morale, encourage a culture that promotes cleanliness and improve productivity.
Create A Comprehensive Cleaning Schedule
Cleaning is a responsibility that everyone shares in the workplace. Create comprehensive cleaning schedules with rules that specify who is responsible and when. Regular and improvised cleaning of shared and individual workspaces wastes time and energy and does not ensure that every area is safe. To reduce the spread and accumulation of germs on surfaces, it is important to clean them regularly.
Identify High-traffic and High-touch Areas
To control cleanliness and eliminate germs, it is important to clean and disinfect high-traffic surfaces, such as desks and other surfaces, regularly and consistently. In the past, people would pay more attention to high-traffic areas, desks, and other surfaces during cold or flu season. But in today’s world of health consciousness, you cannot let your guards down. Always clean and maintain high-touch, high-traffic areas. Increased costs can be offset by employee health and reduced sick leave.
Prohibit Food In Certain Areas
Establish clear guidelines for food and beverage consumption in specific areas. This will reduce the amount of food particles, spills, and other hazards that can compromise equipment and products, as well as pose safety risks. Include areas where food or drink is permitted, such as cafeterias, breakrooms or individual cubicles in your cleaning schedule. Even when placed in the wastebasket, leftover food, crumbs and packaging can attract insects and promote bacterial growth.
Stock Up On PPE and Cleaning Supplies
Establish designated storage areas for PPE, cleaning supplies, and make sure that they are regularly restocked and monitored. To prevent the spread of diseases, clean up spills quickly, and maintain cleanliness and safety, all employees should have easy access to hand sanitizers and paper towels.

Workspaces and Common Areas are Subject to Routine Inspections
Scheduled inspections should be conducted in all areas of work and public areas to prevent accidents, illnesses, and injuries. Routine workplace inspections can help identify hazards and document them for future corrective actions. Inspections provide workers and supervisors with an opportunity to express their concerns. They can help you identify potential hazards and better understand your workplace’s operations, tasks, and jobs.
Attention should be paid to those items which are likely to cause unsafe or unhygienic conditions, such as stress, wear and tear, impact, vibrations, heat, chemical reactions, or misuse. Include areas that are not used regularly such as parking areas, rest areas and office storage areas. Include all aspects of your work environment, such as the people, the equipment, the process and the space. Routine inspections will include:
-
- Noise
- Vibration
- Lighting
- Waste
- Temperature
- Ventilation
Electrostatic Disinfection
COVID-19 is a new standard for commercial office disinfection that has increased the demand for services at every workplace. To ensure that harmful microbes can be destroyed and removed from an environment, every room, item of equipment, surface, and product must receive the proper treatment. Electrostatic disinfection with Nano-Barrier Protection is one solution that can guarantee complete cleaning on all these surfaces.
Electrostatic disinfection is a method that uses liquid cleaning products and electrically charged sprays to clean surfaces in 360 degrees. This method of rapid cleaning ensures a thorough and even coverage without overusing chemicals. It is also excellent for managing difficult-to-reach or complex spaces.
Nano-barriers protect surfaces by using antimicrobial formulas that create a barrier layer. This chemical attracts microbes to the treated area and blocks them from growing.
These methods together offer a significant level of protection against COVID-19 spread in all industries, including offices, airlines, manufacturing, hospitals and universities.
